Please note: Alzheimer’s Society has temporarily suspended all of our face-to-face and group services.

The Society will ensure that all relevant people:

• receive the appropriate level of knowledge and have access to learning events in safeguarding adults and children

• know how to respond and where to go for advice and assistance

• understand the importance of balancing choice and control with safety

• know about different types of abuse and neglect

• support people to keep safe

• know who to tell about suspected abuse or neglect

• The Society will do this by promoting safeguarding is everyone’s business and ensure that appropriate legislation is implemented with our people trained to recognise and manage safeguarding concerns.     

• All employees and volunteers have a duty to prevent the abuse of children and adults and report any safeguarding concerns to the relevant person.
